Soccer is Addicting as Hell

I thought there wasn't any room in my brain. I'm more addicted to sports than mostly anyone I've ever met. I've been following the NFL college football, college basketball, baseball, and the NBA since 1987. I'm the geek who sits and keeps score while watching a baseball game at home. I talk about sports constantly. So every four years in the past, when the World Cup came along, I jumped right in. Coming from a school like Chancellor helped me know and appreciate the game a little more than most. A good number of my friends were really good soccer players and our program when I was in school was one of the best in the state of Virginia. I went to almost every game during my four years at CHS, so I had a general understanding of how the game was played. But once the World Cup was over, soccer and me went out respective ways, knowing that we'd see each other again in four years.

Manny Ramirez says he would not block trade, so who wants a defensive liability with attitude issues and a huge salary? In all likelihood he won't be traded, but in 2009 Manny will not be making us laugh defensively in Boston.

Move over Green Bay, Valdosta is the new Titletown... wait what the... that can't be right. If anything its Los Angeles with UCLA, USC, Lakers, and the Dodgers or even Boston. So you shove this down your viewers throats to give it to a town with absolutely no Division 1 schools and no professional teams. Ridonkulous.

Rasheed, are you taking notes?

You should be, if your going to get ejected, do it style. That is exactly what Andre Luis did, he was sent off after receiving a second yellow card for a foul. Instead of leaving in a peaceful manner, he told the crowd he was number one, kicked a bottle into the stands, then fought with the riot cops. Which then caused his teammates to get involved and was re-arrested only after the police had to use batons and pepper spray on him and his fellow players.



I love how the police have time for an interview, all the while a riot is going on behind him. Anyhow Andre Luis is the Michael Jordan/Hank Aaron/Joe Montana of getting ejected, and this time he left nothing on the table. Rasheed, the bar has been raised. Thankfully due to the Celtics, you have all offseason to figure out how to top this.
